|
Manage cluster |
Master:
|
|
Slave:
|
||
Zone status |
||
Zone name |
The name of this cluster zone. By default, the system has one zone, called “Default”, but you can configure other cluster zones and then direct devices to use them. You can also rename the “Default” zone. After configuring a cluster zone, you should select a backup zone to act as a fallback in the event that the MBGs in the cluster zone become unavailable. |
|
Backup |
The name of the backup zone for this zone (if any). |
|
Node status |
||
Node ID |
The domain name/system name of nodes in the cluster. |
|
Node state |
The sync status of this node. |
|
Blade Version |
MBG software version installed on this node. |
|
MiNet devices |
The number of phones registered with the node. |
|
Connected devices |
The number of phones currently connected to the node. |
|
Address |
The IP address this server uses to communicate cluster events with the cluster. |
|
Weight |

|
Connected |
ü indicates that this node is connected to the cluster. |

License Information |
||
License Information |
List the total number of licenses available plus the number of licenses that are currently in use for the local MBG and for the cluster of MBGs. Figures are provided for the following license types:
|
|
Virtualization Support |
Indicates whether the “MBG Virtual Appliance” license is enabled, allowing the system to be a deployed in a virtual environment using VMware. |
|
IPv6 Support |
Indicates whether the “IPv6 License for MBG” is enabled, enabling the system to be configured with IPv6 addresses on its interfaces. |
Clustering enables multiple MBG servers to communicate with one another via TCP, sharing data in order to provide load balancing, scalability and resiliency.
